The Wright family budget allows
twice as much money for rent as
for food. Their budget allows
less than $720 for both food and
rent. What is the most they can
spend on food?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The most that they can spend in food is $239

Step-by-step explanation:

Their budget allows for less than $720 for both food and rent.

We are told that this budget allows

twice as much money for rent as

for food.

Thus,

Let x be amount of spent on food.

Thus, money spent on rent is 2x

Thus,

2x + x < 720

3x < 720

x < 720/3

x < 240

Since x should be less than 240,it means that the most that they can spend in food is $239

The longest leg of a right triangle is 12 feet and another side is 5 feet. Find the length of the remaining side.​

Answers

Answer:

10.98 (approximately)

if you wan the exact answer, type into the google search bar:

"sqrt 119"

Step-by-step explanation:

in a right triangle, the longest leg is called the hypotenuse. To find the missing side, you need to use the Pythagorean theorem.

"a^2+b^2=c^2"

c = the hypotenuse

a and be are the other legs.

plug in the numbers.

5^2+b^2 = 12^2

25 + b^2 = 144

b^2 = 119

When a fraction equals zero :

4.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 2x-15y-35

 ————————— • 5 = 0 • 5

     5    

Now, on the left hand side, the  5  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  2x-15y-35  = 0

Equation of a Straight Line

4.2     Solve   2x-15y-35  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  2x-15y-35  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is 7/-3 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-2.33333

 y-intercept = 35/-15 = 7/-3  = -2.33333

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 35/2 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x=17.50000

 x-intercept = 35/2  = 17.50000

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -2.333 and for x=2.000, the value of y is -2.067. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of -2.067 - (-2.333) = 0.267 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / RUN)

   Slope     =  0.267/2.000 =  0.133

Geometric figure: Straight Line

 Slope = 0.267/2.000 = 0.133

 x-intercept = 35/2 = 17.50000

 y-intercept = 35/-15 = 7/-3 = -2.33333

The original length of the new candle is 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear function is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the lineb is the y-intercept value y at x = 0

L represents the length of the candle remeaning unburned in inches

t represents the time after the candle was lit in hours

∵ The relationship between L and t is linear

→ Put it in the form of the equation above

L = m t + b, where b is the original length of the new candle

→ Use the table to find m

∵ m = [tex]\frac{L2-L1}{t2-t1}[/tex]

∵ (1, 9) and (6, 4) are two points in the given table

t1 = 1 and L1 = 9

t2 = 6 and L2 = 4

→ Substitute them in the rule of m above

∵ m = [tex]\frac{4-9}{6-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-5}{5}[/tex] = -1

m = -1

→ Substitute it in the equation above

∵ L = -1(t) + b

∴ L = -t + b

→ To find b substitute t by 1 and L by 9

∵ 9 = -(1) + b

∴ 9 = -1 + b

→ Add 1 to both sides

∵ 9 + 1 = -1 + 1 + b

10 = b

∵ b is the original length of the new candle

The original length of the new candle is 10 inches

Oil is pumped into a tank at a rate of Q(t)=45-t gallons per minute where time is t is measured in minutes how many gallons are in the tank after 30 minutes

Answers

Answer:

15 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Pumping rate is modeled by the equation :

Q(t)=45-t gallons per minute ; where t is in minutes

Number of gallons in tank after 30 minutes ;

Q(t)=45-t

Q(30) = 45 - 30

Q(30) = 15

Hence, Number of gallons in tank after 30 minutes is 15 gallons

What is the equation of a line that has a slope of 2 and passes through point (-6, 3)?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

m= 2

x1 = -6

y1 = 3

Applying the formula,

y-y1 = m(x-x1);

we have,

y - 3 = 2(x -(-6))

y- 3 = 2(x + 6)

y - 3 = 2x + 12

y -2x -3 -12 = 0

y -2x -15 = 0

Therefore the equation of the line is;

2x - y + 15 = 0

David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score. The sum of their scores is 84. Find the score of each student. Use the variable a for Aaron's score.

Answers

Answer:

Aaron's bowling score is 30

David's bowling score is 54

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable representing Aaron's score is = a

The variable representing David's bowling score = d

The sum of their scores is 84.

= a + d = 84...... Equation 1

David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score.

d = 2a - 6

Substituting 2a - 6 for d in Equation 1

a + 2a - 6 = 84

3a - 6 = 84

3a = 84 + 6

3a = 90

a = 90/3

a = 30

Hence, Aaron's bowling score is 30

d = 2a - 6

d = 2(30) - 6

d = 60 - 6

d = 54

David's bowling score is 54

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

A variable can either be dependent or independent. A dependent variable depend on other variable while an independent variable does not depend on other variables.

Let x represent the number of months subscribed. Hence,

For Roman's gym:

Total payment = 25x + 49.99

For Athens Fitness:

Total payment = 18x + 126.99

For both clubs to have the same payment:

25x + 49.99 = 18x + 126.99

7x = 77

x = 11

It would take 11 months of membership for the total money paid to each club to be the same.
